This. I was not expecting him to look that fit. Someone has taught this kid well.

I have seen this kid bang the weights around. Very impressive also. Strong as a bull. Can not wait to see what he is like his jr/sr years after a good s/c program.

"Austin Sanders of Tennessee helped reclaim some dignity for the offensive linemen as he cooly stepped in and made his blocks lining up at left tackle," Scout.com national analyst Scott Kennedy said. "The offensive linemen are at a clear disadvantage during pass rush drills, but Sanders was able to show a quick drop step, set up a strong, solid base to maintain leverage, and keep his man on the perimeter."

"I'd be happy to play early, but I'd like to mature and grow a little bit, get attached to my environment before I actually start to play. But, I'm all for it if they think I'm ready to play," he said

Been throwing weight in the gym since he was 11 or 12 and gets grown men staring in amazement because they can't do what he does...most look like "Aww! he can't do that!" Then jaws drop! "How old are you?" HAHA! I love it

Thanks for being our first recruit for 2013. Better times ahead for the Big Orange Nation. Enjoy your senior season and keep preparing to play early and often for the 2013 Vols!

Great article on Sanders. You gotta love it when you have recruits talking about The UT this way. Keep working hard and can not wait til you are in Orange smacking the DLs around.

GO VOLS!!

Sanders is a lifelong Tennessee fan who is considered a gym rat who can be found lifting every day at school before spending an additional two hours working out with his father each night.

"It (Tennessee) is so close to where I live and have grown up, you are supposed to go to Tennessee," Sanders said. "I want to be a part of bringing the program back where it used to be. Here at Bradley, I was a part of bringing back a winning team, from my freshman through my senior year. If everyone is willing to work, we can have winning seasons at Tennessee. I like Coach (Derek) Dooley and what he stands for."

The talented 6-5, 300-pound offensive lineman who has quick feet makes it perfectly clear that offers from even national championship teams won't sway his commitment.

"If Nick Saban showed up and offered me a scholarship to Alabama, I would tell him no," Sanders said.

So refreshing to have top tier talent in our backyard, and nobody can touch him. All Vol just like me. He'll certainly be a fan favorite

A lot of guys in the recruiting forum have an innate disregard for instate talent. We could build a solid team from a majority of Tennessee players. Of course, we would go out some because we are not Texas; I hope the best for this guy.
